なぜか大切二思うほど傷つけてたり傷ついてる

.! I'm learning Japanese because I thought it would be good for me, since I'm already teaching myself Korean. Though my main reason was because I was also learning Korean I want to be able to watch jdramas and listen to jpop/jrock without needing English subs ore looking up the translation of the song. I though it'd also be good to learn a language that no one around me knows so when I feel like venting out my anger I can release it without getting in trouble.
blaugh !.

비가 떨어지니까 나도 떨어질 것 같아냐

The more languages I know they better!

Besides, I'd really love to visit Japan someday.

And no, I don't like anime :l

I started learning because I wanted to be able to listen to song and watch anime and stuff without subtitles. To me singing songs in japanese whilst understaning what it means helps
And my ds game My Japanese Coach.
I have a bad habit in which I don't call people idiots or say Are you stupid? instead I say baka or baka ne. It gets me a few weird looks when I yell it to someone across the street in town or school lol

Learning Japanese to get a better chance to communicate with my grandpa.

Im on my 3rd year of learning Japanese, and why im taking it is because I think it will be good to have on my C.V. and for communicating with people who can speak the language or who are.And maybe it was kind of the mang 8D

Hiya everyone!

I'm currently learning Japanese and German.

I'm learning Japanese for a number of reasons, really.

1. Anime/Manga (duh!!!)
2. It' s a lot like my native Hungarian, so it makes it a bit easier
3. I'd like to learning Korean and Chinese too, so I though it would be a good "kick off" into the oriental languages
4. it's a cool phonetical language
5. I really like the Japanese culture and the lanuage mirrors all the cool stuff in it!

HUGZ!!

When I learned that Japanese was offered at the high school I was going to attend, I desperately wanted to learn it so I could read manga in its original language and watch anime without subtitles.

I s**t you not. I was a freaking weaboo in Year 7.

Once I started learning the language though, I found a (career-related) benefit to having a second language so I kept going all through high school. At one point, I was going to become an interpreter, or a translator for a newspaper / magazine.

I remember when I was really little (before I never was into anime/manga), i wanted to learn Japanese so I could play import only games from Japan. Then I wanted to learn it so I could watch anime without subs and being able to read manga raw but I've kinda grown out of both and I'm losing motivation for them. So now, I'm just learning it as a second language and so that I can communicate with Japanese people. It's also nice to be able to read the package labels for food. Really comes in handy when you're shopping at the Asian mart.
